Sold: $222.50
Seller’s comments: WHAT A MIND-BLOWING Complete HEAVY METAL Set! Yes, the best of them all…. BLACK SABBATH (and HEAVEN & HELL!) and the most complete collection you will find anywhere, don’t you think?

Do we need to talk much about these grand-fathers of HEAVY METAL? Black Sabbath are an English rock band, formed in Aston, Birmingham in 1969, by Ozzy Osbourne (lead vocals), Tony Iommi (guitar), Geezer Butler (bass guitar), and Bill Ward (drums). Black Sabbath are cited as pioneers of heavy metal. The band helped define the genre with releases such as quadruple-platinum Paranoid, released in 1970. They were ranked by MTV as the “Greatest Metal Band” of all time, and placed second in VH1’s “100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock” list, behind Led Zeppelin. Rolling Stone called the band “the heavy-metal kings of the ’70s”. They have sold over 15 million records in the United States and over 70 million records worldwide. Black Sabbath were inducted into the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005, the US Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006, and were included among Rolling Stone’s list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.

On 11 November 2011, the original band members announced that they were reuniting and recording a new album. The band performed a headlining slot at the Download Festival on 10 June 2012, with a world tour scheduled to follow. On 2 February 2012, Ward announced that he would not participate in the Black Sabbath reunion unless he was given a “signable contract.” The following day, the other group members announced they had “no choice but to continue recording without him,” but said “our door is always open” for Ward to return to the band…

So, with a new album coming soon, you now have the outstanding opportunity to own 25 of THE LEGENDARY official albums from BLACK SABBTH plus the HEAVEN & HELL studio CD. The original 1970s albums come in the form of the box set from 2004 and are amazing sounding re-masters. The rest are mostly original label issues, not re-masters but the way they were first released on their original label. The CDs are in superb shape, look practically mint. They include the complete package, with the booklet and back cover inlay all intact. Most will ship in padded, protective CD sleeves (not in jewel cases – see jewelsleeve.com for details on these superb sleeves!!!) Enjoy this amazing, COMPLETE Set!

BONUS: an amazing live concert CD (yes, a bootleg but an amazing sound quality!) by Black Sabbath with Ian Gillan on vocals from 1983.
